2011 Map of Buckbrush Spring

About this map

Buck Brush Spring and the surrounding high desert of Lyon County define this landscape at the start of the 21st century. The terrain is characterized by the Gray Hills and the seasonal drainage of Copper Run, illustrating a remote environment where water sources are the primary landmarks. Human presence is marked by infrastructure designed for land management and ranching, such as the Reese River Rd and expansive boundary lines like Four Mile Fence and Reese River Fence. Localized water infrastructure, including the Buck Brush Storage Tank and Water Tank Spring, indicates the essential nature of water management in this arid region. The map also identifies several other named water points, including Summit Spring and Abraham Spring, which serve as vital reference points for navigation and land use in this sparsely populated portion of Nevada.
